      • Krist played the accordion during Jesus Don't Want Me For A Sunbeam. Edit
      • Kurt sits on an office chair with wheels, because he couldn't decide witch guitar to use. All guitars were on stage, but he didn't want to walk, so MTV had to find a chair 15 minutes before the session started. The solution: They took the chair of the office upstairs in the studio. Edit
